Question:

The length of each side of a regular hexagon is 10 cm. What is the area of the hexagon?

Options:

$156 \sqrt{3} \,cm^2$

$144 \sqrt{3} \,cm^2$

$148 \sqrt{3} \,cm^2$

$150 \sqrt{3} \,cm^2$

Correct Answer:

$150 \sqrt{3} \,cm^2$

Explanation:

Side = 10

Area of a hexagon = 3\(\frac{\sqrt {3}}{4}\) × (side)2

Area = 3\(\frac{\sqrt {3}}{4}\) × (10)2150\(\sqrt {3}\) cm2
